Odaily News The Republican National Committee of the United States expressed support for a number of crypto policy measures that benefit digital asset companies and holders in its official party platform for the 2024 US election. According to the official document released by the campaign team of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Monday, the Republican Party's "Make America Great Again" platform vows to end the "illegal and un-American crackdown" on the US cryptocurrency industry. The platform also promises to "defend the right to mine Bitcoin" and allow cryptocurrency holders to keep their tokens themselves, in addition to opposing the creation of a central bank digital currency (CBDC). "We will defend the right to trade free from government surveillance and control," the document reads.
